For release 5 November, 2002: InterMapper 3.7 Offers Notification Dependencies Hanover, NH - November 5, 2002 - Dartware LLC announces immediate availability of InterMapper(R) 3.7. InterMapper is a network monitoring application that continually checks the servers, routers, switches, and other networked equipment and alerts the network manager when there are problems using audible alerts, e-mail messages, pages, and running scripts. There are three major features in this version: * Notification Dependencies. InterMapper will automatically suppress notifications of devices that become unreachable due to a failure of an intervening device. For example, when a core router fails, InterMapper will not send notifications for those devices that can't be queried because of that router's failure. * Built-in paging, with support for SNPP and modems. InterMapper has a built-in notification that will send pages to SNPP servers. In addition, InterMapper for MacOS X can now send pages using the Mac's built-in modem or an external modem. * Remote map editing. With the latest version of InterMapper Remote, the network manager can create, edit, and delete maps from a separate computer. Even when the InterMapper machine is in the network operations center, the network administrator can manage it from another location, such as another office, from home, or even while on the road. InterMapper 3.7 also has the following features: * Xserve probe. InterMapper will monitor an Xserve, and report when there are problems. The network manager can then launch Apple's Server Monitor application to get detailed information about the problem. * SSL encryption for the InterMapper Remote and Web browser connections. * Improved web page format. InterMapper now sports a new look for its web pages. * New security mechanism. InterMapper 3.7 has a built-in firewall to help control which address may access the server, and who may access individual maps. InterMapper is priced by the number of devices being monitored. Prices range from $1,995 for an unlimited number of devices down to $295 for 10 devices; all licenses include a 60 day support subscription. Educational discounts are also available.
